Hi Patient!

Really? Dad jokes? I’d expect that from me, but you? You’re better than that

Burn is the only person I have ever known to be able to do the angry dad joke. So my only real issue is that joke was in no way angry.

[Burn]

Oh you want angry?

This has been on my mind for a few days now and I've had enough! It needs to be sorted!

Rule 2a. Regular nouns are nouns that form their plurals by adding either the letter s or es (guy, guys; letter, letters; actress, actresses; etc.). To show plural possession, simply put an apostrophe after the s.

Correct: guys' night out (guy + s + apostrophe)
Incorrect: guy's night out (implies only one guy)

Now, I know that Wingz is an American and as such has to butcher the English language, but when I say her name I'm pronouncing it "Wings", aka, the CORRECT way to spell.

But Rule 2a confuses me. Would it be Wingz's or, for the sake of butchering the English language even more, Wingz'?

[Absolute Zero]

Either would probably be correct in America. Given that she has a z and not an s, it should be Wingz's

But since it's pronounced "Wings" and the proper ownership of that in 'Merica (Which I almost typed "in erica" lol) would be Wingz'. Either way, spell checker hates it.

This concludes our education on 90s American English Grammar for the day.

Dude, first rule about the English language is that it has more loopholes than HMW and is likely just as broken

For example: Pointing north, you say "northern" (north-ern). West is west-ern. East is east-ern. So why do people not say south-ern? Why Suth-ern? Is it because people in the south like their slang?

Those of us so blessed as to be from the South have our own dialect for much the same reason as Quebec speaks French... to torque off the rest of North America.

A vast majority of my family is from Bayou de Large. If you've ever seen The Waterboy, those are my people. Yes, the way they speak is not an exaggeration. No, I don't speak like them. But they had a tendency to turn entire sentences into a single word.

Turbo...anyone ever ask you the question "Jeet?"

The devil went down to Georgia? Just a guess...

That, or Burn is playfully plotting my demise now He did bring up a good point about my name, afterall... If I were going for messing with the English language, it's not quite messed up enough Still makes too much sense... Perhaps I could change it to Wingzs'? Or perhaps Wingsz's? Or Wingz's's, as Servant put it. Hmmmm...

To bad it wouldn't show in the game.
